ITALIAN HERO SANDWICH
Italian hero, sub, hoagie, grinder - this classic sandwich has many names, and every deli makes it differently. Its deliciousness lies in the proportion of rich-and-fatty ingredients to spicy-and-crunchy ones. For optimal structure and texture, start with crusty rolls with pillowy insides (or toast soft rolls). Use two to four types of cured meat for a range of umami, and plenty of lettuce and pickles to counterbalance them. Then assemble wisely: Shingle the meat and cheese across the rolls, then top with pickles, onions and dressed lettuce. Once put together, the wet ingredients are wrapped in meat so they're held in place and the bread doesn't get soggy. Wrap with parchment or wax paper for tidier eating and transporting.

Steps:
- Rinse the red onion under cold water, then transfer to a large bowl. Add the red wine vinegar, dried oregano and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir to combine and set aside.
- Arrange the rolls cut side up so they lie flat. Spread with a thin layer of mustard and/or mayonnaise, if using. Shingle the entire surface with the cheese, then the cured meats. Scatter an even layer of pickled peppers.
- Add the iceberg lettuce and olive oil to the onion-oregano mixture and toss until well coated. Season to taste with salt. Pile the lettuce on one side of the sandwich, then close the sandwich and press down lightly. If packing, wrap the sandwich tightly in parchment paper or foil, then cut in half crosswise. Sandwiches will keep for up to 4 hours refrigerated.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Generously brush a large skillet with some of the olive oil.
- Turn dough out onto a floured work surface. Using a floured rolling pin, roll dough into a 10-by-20-inch rectangle. Brush with olive oil; sprinkle with rosemary and sopressata. Halve lengthwise. Roll each strip lengthwise to form a long, narrow roll. Cut each roll into 11 3/4-inch slices.
- Place the slices, with a cut side down, in the skillet. Brush tops with remaining olive oil. Cover with plastic wrap; let rise until dough does not spring back when pressed with a finger, about 30 minutes.
- Bake until golden, about 35 minutes; serve warm or at room temperature.
SWEET AND SAVORY PROSCIUTTO ROLL-UPS
Impress your guests at your next wine and cheese night with these elegant prosciutto roll-ups. The combination of creamy goat cheese, sweet fig preserves, and savory prosciutto will make these disappear quickly! You'll want to double the recipe, or you can cut the rolls in half for a smaller serving size. I like to serve these over a bed of arugula that has been lightly tossed with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
